"Down 7-2 in the 9th and you pitch Duran. The same idiotic choice Rocco made in LA and then he could not use him in the 3rd game due to his inning restriction rules." Prior posting made by me in the last game chat, So, I then listened to the Skor North broadcast and a rationale was floated. Apparently, club scouts were scouting Duran. Did Rocco put Duran in the game so that scouts could view him pitching for trade purposes? I then read a Gleeman article about Falvey looking beyond 2025. I understand trades will take place, but I hope that Rocco/Falvey did not take such an approach. The current Front Office/manager have made this fan since 1965 feel dispirited beyond belief this year.
